I'm new to this and had the above problems even after following the posted solutions, but found that in my case an extra change to config.inc.php was needed. I believe that the issue only arises if you have more than one server defined, hence why the solutions above work for some, but not others. If I understand correctly $i is an index to an array of server information and is intialised as below; * Servers configuration $i = 0; Then for each server it's incremented by a line containing, $i++; In my case I have 2 servers, localhost, and a test server. So for localhost $i = 1, and for the test server $i = 2. The lines added to the ini file for configuration storage come after the lines for the servers so at this point $i is still 2, but I want it set up for localhost, not my testserver. So I added $i = 1 as shown below. * phpMyAdmin configuration storage settings. */ $i = 1; This worked for me, I hope it helps others.
